Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
- Dry each chicken wing with a paper towel to remove moisture.
- In a mixing bowl, stir the smoked paprika, Cajun spice mix, salt, and pepper. Add the chicken to the mixing bowl, and toss to coat in the spice mix.
- Remove the chicken wings from the mixing bowl and place them on a wire rack set over a baking tray. Bake in the oven for 25 minutes, or until crispy on one side.
- While the wings are crisping up in the oven, add all the ingredients for the dip in a bowl and give it a mix.
- Prepare the salad in a bowl or arrange it directly on the serving plates. Drizzle with olive oil.
- Remove the wings from the oven, flip so that the alternate side can get crispy, and bake again for 20 minutes or until super crispy. Serve immediately with the dipping sauce and salad.
Tips
Keep the leftovers in the fridge in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
Air fryer method
Preheat the air fryer to 375°F (190°C). Dry the chicken wings with a paper towel.
Wipe the air fryer basket lightly with a drop of avocado oil or spray.
Season the chicken wings as in step 3.
Place the chicken wings in the air fryer basket and air fry for 20 minutes, turning halfway through, until cooked and crispy.
